Alen had made a beeline towards the castle, hoping to find some semblance of safety within its walls. The closer he got, the more he realized just how massive the structure was. It seemed to tower over the surrounding ruins, an ominous and imposing presence.
As he approached the entrance, he noticed that the gate was slightly open. He hesitated, wondering if it was a trap, but he knew he had no other options. With a deep breath, he pushed the gate open and stepped inside.
The interior was just as foreboding as the exterior. The walls were lined with torches that flickered ominously, casting shadows across the room. Dust coated every surface, indicating that nobody had been there in a long time.
But as he walked farther into the castle, he noticed something strange. There were no signs of the beasts that had overrun the city. The silence was eerie, and the lack of any blood or bodies was unsettling. He had a feeling that something else was watching him.
